fight-club16

Username/Diary Title [2/5]- To me, your username is not very unique. It is after a movie, which I`m guessing you like so thats good, but the 16 at the end makes me think that other people also have fight-club as their name, and that is not good.

First Impression [9/10]- The colors flow together really nicely. The scroll box is a bit small and I don`t like that. There isn`t any clutter or anything to slow the page down. Your layout is about the Counting Crows so I am guessing you like them.

Content [35/40] - You update quite a bit and you keep the writer up to date with your life. In some of your entries you would back link to older entries to help the reader understand what you were talking about, but in other entries you wouldn`t. In a way that is kind of good because it makes the reader go back into your older entries to try and figure things out themselves, but it is also very aggrivating! An example of that would be this entry.

In this entry, you started to talk about the No Child Left Behind policy, but then you quit and said you would talk about it later, which you haven`t yet. I was hoping you would because I wanted to know how you felt about it. You seem very opinionated and you let that show in your diary.

I could relate to you in a lot of entries, but this one seemed similar to something I would say.

In conclusion, you write very well. I enjoyed reading your diary and I liked having you as my first review. I feel like a lot of what you say people out there can relate to, and yet you only say it because its what you feel. You`re not trying to get a big pile of diary-groupies worshipping you.

Layout [24/30]- You designed the layout yourself, thats awesome. The colors go together really well and everything is readable, but one thing I didn`t like is the small area for text. I`m the type of person who doesn`t really like to scroll all of the time because it makes me lose my spot or forget what I was reading. There are no animated graphics slowing down the loading process and cluttering the page.

Grammar/Spelling/Vocabulary [3/5]- You had misspelled words here and there and some punctuation errors. The biggest thing that I noticed was you would end a sentence and the next one would start with and or but.

Contact [4/5]- Guestbook, notes, email, yahoo, and AIM. You had enough, but because 4 out of the 5 ways to contact you were in the extras, I`m going to take a point.

Extras [5/5]- Characters, Books/Playlist, Film Countdown, Readers, Reviews, Diary Rings, Pictures, Reads, Affiliates, 2004 Resolutions,and a Biography. Whew, thats quite a few!

Level of: This is where we determine the levels of certain things
in your diary. [on a scale of 1-10]
Angst [0]: I didn`t find any angst.
Depression [5]: There were times you seemed sad and depressed.
Happiness [5]: You seem a bit happy and a bit sad.
Sociability [5]: You seem sociable, because you talk about your friends, but in one entry you talk about how at one time you pushed all of your friends away.
Boredom [2]: I didn`t really get bored too much, because I wanted to keep reading to see if I could find out why you were feeling and saying some of the things you were saying, but I did get bored a few times.
Selfishness [0]: I didn`t really notice any. You were there for other people when they needed you.
Coolness [7]: I think you`re cool. I would probably be able to get along with you.
Musicality [3]: Your layout is the Counting Crows, and you talk about them. You also throw in a few songs you like here and there.

Three Words: Planted, Intelligent, and Determined.

Your Song: "Tan Shoes with Pink Shoelaces" by Dodie Stevens because I think you are unique.

Total Score - [82/100]
